Sep 8, 2023Did my Gollum a real dirty, they need to have their access to the LoTR license revoked immediately. RIP.
-
Sep 8, 2023Please never touch Lord of the Rings again, this game is a blight upon the sacred source material. Poor Gollum deserves better than this.
-
Aug 26, 2023Sorry for giving it a zero, but this game is just... I really don't know what the devs thought by releasing such a disaster.
-

Jul 22, 2023This game is inspirational.
After playing this I feel like I can make a video game; no programming or gaming experience needed.
I do give it a 1 as it does have better graphics then I could make on my own. -
Jul 20, 2023Typical after-2013 game (huge hype and then huge disappointment), basically no story, broken gameplay and controls, parkour is awful, C64-graphics
-
Jul 9, 2023Better than I expected. Some cool ideas but most likely not enough budget to implement correctly.
-
Jul 1, 2023==========
even free or watch it on utube not worth it avoid it all cost.

-very very happy company make this game (90 person) got fired and no more making games but hope they find jobs but not in gaming. -
Jun 26, 2023They release this POS and have the gall to ask for more money for the DLC ingame: emotes, elven voices and a lore compendium?!?
There isn't even lore in the game.
What the F?!? -
Jun 25, 2023This is THE Worst game I have ever played. If I could give it a negative score I would.
-
Jun 23, 2023Truly one of the worst games I have ever played in my entire life. A disgrace to Tolkien and a disgrace to mankind in general.
-
Jun 17, 2023It was 70$ for a game that crashes every fith minute and has graphics that look like it was made in the very early 2000's. The game is unplayable, controls suck and the story is also very drawn out with unesesarilly long cutscenes. Unless the devs fix most of the problems in the game it will stay a 0 from me.

Jun 11, 2023HORRIBLE GAME! IN 5 HOURS, I COUNTES ABOUT 34 BUGS. THE CHARACTER IS UGLY AND THE PERFORMANCE ITS WORSE THAN THE FCKING GAME. 0/10
-
Jun 10, 2023Disappointing with a failed execution. Stay away from this and more for the price it has. A pretty forgettable title and more for fans of The Lord of the Rings.
-
Jun 7, 2023This game has high technical requirements. Gollum is a very good game for the game it wants to be. You climb the whole time, move with gollum and have the lore around.
It has better graphics, hard riddles and a good gameplay feeling. The story is LOTR. All in all great game, you could buy the hardware for it, but also playable on lower. Way better in relation to titles that get hype bot ratings. -
Jun 7, 2023This game should never have been made. Everything about it is terrible. The worst part of it is that it's set in the most iconic fantasy world know to man; Middle Earth.
This game basically takes evrything Tolkein has lovingly crafted, and coughs up phlegm all over it.
Just, don't buy this game, and if you have, get a refund, immediately.
I wish we could refund this game's existence. -
Jun 5, 2023Worst game ever, it's evil to buy and play this game. The graphic quality is unacceptable, the gameplay is a mess, it's painful to play it.

Jun 4, 2023A glitchy ugly mess with an uninteresting unfocused story and the most primitive design I've ever seen in a big game. The whole thing looks like a fan project and selling it for 50 bucks is a joke.
-
Jun 4, 2023Horrific on many fronts. It's only redeeming quality is the visuals & storytelling. The style, while certainly jarring at first, is actually quite cohesive and well put together as a whole.
-
Jun 3, 2023Yes what happened here? Devs should give this game a big makeover or a pricedrop now.
-
Jun 3, 2023Interesting characters and beautiful picture, good atmosphere of Middle-Earth, but long climbing may bored you.

Jun 2, 2023Thinking about him makes me sick. It would be better if the developer of the game cancels the development process. Please buy this game because the poor guy has no money.
-
Jun 1, 2023I don't know what the creators of this game were thinking, this game is an insult to all Lord of the Rings fans and gamers. A blatant insult to the gamer community. I think it's better for the makers of this game to start something else and stop making games.

May 31, 2023How do you rate -10? Holy **** what a bad game! The worst game made in the history of the planet! How does anyone give good marks to this garbage? Is it bad karatism or is it just mockery? It is not possible that someone thought it was good Play this ****!
SO MANY COOL LORD OF THE RINGS CHARACTERS AND THE IDIOTS DEVELOPERS GOT THIS IDIOT CHARACTER (GOLLUM). -
May 31, 2023The crazy thing is, even this piece of crap has a better story than TLOU 2.

Sep 5, 2023I really wanted to like The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. I genuinely wanted to enjoy a unique take on a game set in the Lord of the Rings universe. Sadly, Gollum misses the mark. While the story is actually interesting, the gameplay, bugs and mechanics make it a painful slog.

Game World Navigator MagazineAug 29, 2023Daedalic knew how to make the adventure part work – and it does work, more or less – but everything else screams “amateur hour” so hard, it borders on naïve art. [Issue#262, p.64]

Aug 8, 2023There is no sense in pointing out any specific bad decisions — The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is awful on some basic level of a game design. Almost every task infuriates me in this game.
